At my sister’s wedding, my mother said, “you’re single and alone. You don’t need a house. Give it to your sister.” When I refused, she shoved me into the pool. Then, my 10-year-old son pulled something from his pocket and said, “grandma… do you know what this is?” In that moment, my mother and sister froze in complete silence.
